An impromptu photoshoot with my girls before Mother's Day got me thinking of an impromptu photoshoot flash sale.

Need extended family photos? I got you 🙌

Yes, I like capturing some more documentary style moments, but honestly? I really like classic photos of everyone standing, looking at the camera and smiling. I feel like it makes a photo more intentional, especially when it comes to extended families and big groups.

If you want extended family photos (this usually extends to groups of 6+), then I don’t really care if there are 6 of you or 20. You have my time and expertise for an hour/hour and half to capture all those important people in your life ( - trust me! This is enough time 🙃) We will try to get every combination of family member you want together - each with the classic “smile and look here” photo as well as some prompted “moment” photos.

I shot these photos for a dear friend of mine last May here in Lincoln. This is a just snippet- this family ended up with a very very full gallery with all kinds of variations in location and people!

I’ve been clocked out for a couple of years longer than I had anticiapted. Before having my third daughter, my photography and business was really starting to take off! Weddings & families were my jam. I thought I could juggle both a small business and being a stay-at-home mom, but the truth is, growing and raising a family is all I’ve ever wanted and I refused to miss a thing 🥹

However, our littlest is off in part time school now, I feel the “baby/toddler fog” slowly lifting and I am just starting to truly feel like myself again. Barbara. Not ONLY mom, but the nudge to do more for myself is growing. Every time I pick up my camera, meet new people, receive positive feedback about a session - it gives me further validation that this is it. This is my creative world coming to life… and I want to share this world with others.

When I’m clocked in, you will find me exuding a quiet confidence, radiating a calming energy in the room, giving direction, guiding you on natural poses and prompts and assuring you that as weird as my prompts are- you are looking great in the photos.

When I’m clocked out, you will find me at our beautiful tudor house, with my husband and three beautiful daughters, attending book club (that I founded) + movie club with my friends, baking sourdough, traveling, and going to rock/metal concerts with my best friend 🫶🏻

Thanks for sticking by me 💜 Stick around some more!

Sharing this sweet engagement session from the archives because it is still such a good reminder that your photos can feel relaxed and natural.

Engagement sessions do not have to feel stiff or overly posed. A little movement, a little direction, some good light— that is usually where the best photos happen.

Currently booking weddings for late 2026 and 2027 in Lincoln, Omaha, and throughout Nebraska. If you are newly engaged and looking for wedding photos that feel joyful, true-to-life, and not awkward, I would love to hear what you are planning.

A well-planned proposal does not need to feel like a production. Collin kept it simple, surprised Bayley by thinking they were just out to see some horses at a friend’s stables, and let the moment speak for itself.

I approach proposals the same way I approach weddings—minimal intrusion, and documenting what actually happens rather than directing it. I do always make sure to get some posed “smiley” shots in addition to candid photos.

If you are planning something like this, I can help you think through the details and capture it in a way that feels natural. I am always so honored to play a special part in these special moments 🫶🏻

There are moments, as a photographer, when you just can’t wait to get home and go through your photos on the big screen. It is amazing to see how different people can photograph the same person or same scene in completely different ways - from the way they edit to how they capture a specific moment. I personally love to capture close up moments, and by default always lean toward vibrant, true to color photos ✨

I walked away with so many perfect little moments from today’s hosted shoot. I cannot wait to share more in the coming days 🥹

It’s been quiet over here for a long time, but I am still here! I’ve taken a huge hiatus from trying to market myself or just do business apart from my close connections over the past couple of years….

It’s easy to sometimes forget my “why” and I kind of get that imposter syndrome - Am I good enough? Do people even care? Is what I’m doing of value? The answer is YES ✨

It’s really easy to constantly compare yourself in an industry such as photography. Photography style in how photos are taken and then edited is subjective. However, every time I pick up my camera and flip through photos I’ve taken, I wish I had similar pictures of my own family like that.

I love directing my clients with different prompts and actions, but I will always be someone who loves the traditional “stand and smile” photos. I’ve known Andrea for many years now and I was thrilled to have taken photos for her recently. A very full gallery is being delivered shortly! 🫶

Hi! I’m still here! 🧡🧡

As many and most of you know, I am a very busy mom with 3 young daughters. I started photography when my oldest was a baby almost 8 years ago. A few years later, I really dove in headfirst when my secondborn daughter started preschool. At that time, having those 4 mornings a week all to myself really allowed me to focus on things I wanted to focus on- such as this business. That year, I started delving into the world of wedding photography and really gaining so much experience in the world of professional photography.

Then, we decided to add a third baby and our youngest girl was born. I have been doing small photography jobs here and there, but I have really just taken a huge step back. My kids and family life have always come first and my little business just wasn’t at the top of the list…

However, every time I’ve picked up my camera, I realize how much I enjoy this. I love hearing the feedback I receive from families and couples about how much they love their photos or how nice it was to work with me. It truly is a creative outlet for me and one I feel I have a knack for.

All this to say, is that my littlest baby is now over a year old. She is still with me all of the time, but I am finding longer pockets of the day where I am able to focus on my own creative endevours. I am dreaming up big goals for myself and brainstorming ideas of where to take this creative path. I appreciate each and every one of you, and I hope you stick around 🤍

I spent a few hours with with Sara & Ryan yesterday at the Nebraska Governor’s Mansion 😍 The weather held out for us all, and they had a beautiful ceremony out in the courtyard.

I love sharing a few sneak peeks of some photos the day after a wedding! 🤍

This was not just an ordinary maternity photoshoot. It was really special. I saw everything kind of come full circle for me.

Leah & Austen first approached me years ago that they were engaged and wanted me to photograph their wedding. It was the first real big wedding I’ve done. They knew that and wanted to support me. My style, gear, and definitely experience have evolved over the years, and this past week I was asked to take their maternity photos for their first baby 🥰

I cannot express enough how grateful I am to document such important milestones for people, but really most importantly, how wonderful each and every client I have is. If you know me or have worked with me, you know I truly enjoy getting to know you more on a friend level (as opposed to just client-consumer). Thank you thank you thank you! ❤️
